I still don't understand why Liu Lieyu went to such lengths to hold this so-called "wedding".
"Donghuang, the auspicious time is almost here," the old man suddenly reminded him.
After the old man reminded me, I noticed that the incense on the table had burned down to almost nothing.
Liu Lieyu then put his arm around me and stood upright in the center of the altar.
After a while, a huge roar seemed to come from all directions. I was already a little tired, and the sudden loud noise made my heart tighten.
With a roar, a rain of flowers fell from the sky, peach petals drifting down one by one. Even I was attracted by the rain of flowers in front of me. I suppressed the urge to reach out and catch the petals and the feeling of wanting to spin around in the rain of flowers.
You and I must have the most romantic wedding. As I look at the beautiful scenery in front of me, I think of You. I look down at the altar and ask, You, can you see this too?
After the shower of flowers, blessings followed from below the altar. The crowd below the altar knelt down in worship, muttering indistinct words.
I closed my eyes to rest, and for some reason, these vague words sounded particularly unpleasant to my ears.
When I opened my eyes again, I discovered an astonishing change. The surroundings were filled with white specks of light, which slowly swirled around me and Liu Lieyu, disappearing as they approached our bodies. What the hell was this? I felt a little panicked. Whenever a white speck of light tried to get close to me, I shrank back in fear, but it was no use.
Liu Lieyu's body was almost engulfed by white specks of light, while I was just a few stars in the sky.
I tried reaching out to touch the white dots of light and found that I didn't feel anything when they entered my body, so I felt relieved and stopped being afraid.
After all, Liu Lieyu beside me was completely engulfed by white light spots, his figure was no longer discernible, and he could only be vaguely identified as a humanoid shape emitting white light. If these white lights were harmful, Liu Lieyu wouldn't have allowed them to attach themselves to him.
I looked at the crowd chanting below, and the white light was coming from them. Could this be... the power of faith?
No wonder there were only a few of these white lights attached to me, while Liu Lieyu had a continuous stream of them. These were all the faith of his Guixu people in the Eastern Emperor.
The chanting lasted for about half an hour. The surrounding white light was almost completely absorbed by Liu Lieyu. I stood to the side without moving. I really felt like my neck was about to break. I just turned my head slightly and heard a cracking sound.
The blazing sun seemed to shine especially brightly on me, as if it knew that Liu Lieyu and I were the main characters in this grand drama.
Oh my god, how much longer will this last?! I really, really, really, really can't take it anymore!
My prayers were finally heard by God. The torturous chanting stopped, and then an old man with a white beard spoke, saying a long string of words that I couldn't understand at all.
I felt a little dizzy, as if I were in a state of confusion. Suddenly, I heard the white-bearded old man call out our names.
Liu Lieyu held my hand and suddenly squeezed my waist hard. I forced myself to stay awake and looked up at him, asking what was wrong.
Liu Lieyu whispered in my ear, "It's our turn."
Seeing that I was still in a daze, Liu Lieyu finally had a change of heart and asked, "Are you alright?"
However, the next sentence...
"You're not allowed to faint later."
